BJP National Convention, day 2: PM Modi to blow poll bugle in Ramlila Maidan today
Bharatiya Janata Party's star campaigner and prime ministerial candidate and incumbent Narendra Modi is set to blow poll bugle for 2019 Lok Sabha polls at the concluding session of party's national convention in the national capital today.
The two-day convention, inaugurated by party President Amit Shah at Ramlila Maidan on Friday, is being seen as BJP's launch pad for the poll campaign for the impending general elections.
Addressing at the convention on day1, Amit Shah said, the bill providing 10 per cent reservation in jobs and education to Economically Weaker Sections in general category will benefit crores of youth. He accused the Congress of playing politics over the government's initiatives which have been pending for years. Seeking another term for BJP-led government at the Centre, the BJP Chief termed the present dispensation as transparent, corruption-free, decisive and sensitive.
Apart from the prime minister, his cabinet ministers, BJP chief ministers, MPs and senior party leaders, a least 12,000 delegates from across the country are expected to be at the convention.
